The recent Supreme Court Decision getting rid of black elected representatives in America has generated a lot of discussion.
Most of those discussions have focused on the linkage between black people and the Democratic party.
That relationship, the discussers point out, means that everywhere but the two Coasts and a few oddball enclaves elsewhere, the "no black districts" law will usher in an alarmingly red future for America.
As an exit summary statement, I heard one of those discussers recently say something like: "until the Democrats can develop a message that appeals to rural, uneducated white voters ...".
You don't need to be educated to know that trump and the republicans have things as fucked up as Grogan's Goat.
If voters don't know that, or don't care, I can't imagine any "message" that's going to get them to vote for you.
In the current state of affairs, a candidate named Generic Not A Republican ought to win in a landslide, no "message" required.
But being stupid, or being unwilling to admit having been conned, or both, is too thick a fog to penetrate.
